Kent seam bowler Matt Quinn has signed a new two-year contract with the club.

The 32-year-old has taken 335 wickets in 234 appearances across all formats in a career spanning 13 years.

He joined Kent in 2021 on loan from Essex and made the move permanent the following year.

Quinn, who was born in New Zealand but is not regarded as an overseas player as he holds a British passport, was part of the Spitfires sides that won the T20 Blast in 2021 and the One Day Cup in 2022.

"This year has been a tough one for me personally with niggling injuries just as I was getting into a rhythm with my bowling, but I'm determined to work hard this winter to be as ready as I can be for 2026," he said.

"Everyone in the dressing room is eager to push on in all formats and I hope to contribute towards wins throughout next summer and beyond."

Quinn's new contract, which runs until the end of the 2027 season, also includes a mentoring role in the club's talent pathway.
